review 1: How far will you go to have champagne wishes and caviar dreams? Does it mean selling your soul to the devil or just forgetting who you are as a person and stepping on everyone that you know and love in order to get there?Maribel Alvarez is a very smart, nerdy girl. A beautiful girl who feels like she doesn't fit in with anyone and the one person who she fits in with is her total opposite. Shawna dressed like and could pass for a boy on first glance and even called herself "Shawn", but was the best friend that a person could ever have. Through this friendship Shawn helped Maribel realize that she was somebody, that she was Fancy! Life goes on for Fancy and as she lives and learns through the years she is wondering who and what she really is. How did she get to this poi... morent and where does she go from here? Through a series of events Fancy will learn some lessons about life that she might not have wanted to learn but will forever be grateful for them. But will she learn from the ultimate lesson that is given?Fancy is a very well written and put together story. I enjoyed the flow of the story and the storyline kept you engrossed. Vanna B has something going with this story and I can't wait to see how it ends.
review 2: BOOK REVIEW: Fancy is just that: FANCY. Or is she really? I submit that in order for her to stay FANCY she has to date a NBA baller, dance at a night club, and have a run in with a gang banger. Seems easy since after all she's FANCY. But after all of the downs, and zero ups, she has an epiphany, she wants to go by her government name, Maribel, and work as a convenient store cashier. But even with that brave change of lifestyle, she has problems, thanks to her past. As the adage goes, you can run but you can't hide.FANCY is a great novel, one that I'd recommend to teens that are impressed in high school by that falsehoods put forth by frauds like FANCY. The only con, despite how beautifully written, was the cliffhanger at the end. Sure there is going to be a book two, but this could have been wrapped up and the story continue in book two. There are two things that I want to know now. Take that with a grain of salt, I'm just not a fan of cliffhangers. In the end, the novel is FANCY, and I'd probably read book 2.
